Hi DINpower,
I am sure you right but 660Hp with ICs is too expensive for me, I am just a normal street driver here in Cote d'azure, No dragracing here
My last chassis number digits are: 648
Does RS has to get the kit fitted in Germany or can a reseller of Cargraphic just install it, bolt-on Stage III?
Thanks for all info!

Re your chassis number, is it a "9S" model year ? I do not really know how the chassis #s work on these new 911s but I think "8S" is 2008 and "9S" is 2009 and PCM3 mine is a "9S" and ends in 239...
Yes the CG reseller can easily bolt on all the parts, I was just suggesting that for the sake of a short trip to Kirchhaslach, just past Bregenz on the right, you could get a semi custom optimisation set up.

I know what you mean about the cost of the intercoolers, it does seem crazy money for a set of bloody radiators but for me when you consider the work which goes into them and the cost of the Secan alternative together with the strength of teh Euro vs Ģ they are OK value - You should consider that on a 30degC day if you are in standard tune and have heat soaked your standard intercoolers to 70degC IAT then the CTR's represent probably 40hp bolt -on power with no other modifications.

It is a 8s, strange! because in the Fahrzeugbrief it says 25.02.2009
Kirchhaslach, is that RS-Tuning, can I call them or go there direct instead of CG reseller?

Ok, I hope they dont, I asked you and you just giving you opinion and advices.
I like to read what you write, very impressed!
How did it go with launchcontroll after tuning your ECU

The launch control basically didn't seem to work after the tuning !
I tried the LC twice, the ECU held the revs at 5000 but when you dump the clutch it just spun the wheels far too vigorously, too much torque. I guess it needed a new LC program ?
Getting the modified GT2 0-100kph was very difficult (for me) with the best times (about 3.9s - so slower than stock) being through slipping the clutch.
I'm certain if I had given my car to a journalist to do as he pleased the time would have been much better but I didn't fancy a new clutch etc just yet !
Here is a crappy 0-100 in 4s start (no launch control)

They (RS) don't recommend using LC even in a stock car so I don't think it is something they would want to mess with !

Keep in mind that the Catalytic used by RS is not the same as the N.A. product claimed to be Cargraphic..the true Trimetal RS cat is just over double in cost vs. NA. There is some kind of coating used that is very expensive.

My car from what I remember was an Oct 08 build.

Both 200 cell and 100 cell are manufactured by HJS but the 100 cell cat monolith is about 4 times the price as 200 cell, as is alluded to above it is a more elaborate professional "race" product.

I think the confusion is that the "200 cell Cargraphic cats" which seem to be marketed and used by US tuners are substantially different to the 100 cell units used (by RS and CG) in the 600 kit.
